that is not quite what I was told lol.... Friend of mine went to the scrim and said Riverheads looked good, has lots of depth in the backfield, and lots of good competition for positions
Hey kw85, I'm not running the pickem but I'll do the bracket challenge for the playoffs when we get there
Come on Xcross! You don't mean that! Riverheads is Riverheads. Kind of like Wilson. We do what we do in Fishersville! I will say that I am seeing a change of power in the Shenandoah but come on! Riverheads reloads and moves forward.
When you say you are seeing a change of power in the Shenandoah, what teams are shifting the power this year in your opinion?
Not really a complete shift in power but a few top teams changing places. I think Gap will be the team to beat. Apparently they look very good against Nelson. Good teams outplay teams they should outplay. We will see how this Friday goes against LEE. Wilson will have a great test against Millbrook. I am very excited to see how our Defense does against their stud back. SHUT DOWN!!! LOL. Can anyone from Draft give us any insight?
Be nice now . I am not going to miss lead anyone , lol , Have not looked at the RED TEAM yet , but they might win a couple games if there lucky ! They host RE LEE next week . We will see what they look like ?
Totally agree with your comments on our boys from the VILLE. I do think we will make some noise. Coach Major will have the boys ready to play! He always does! Glad to see another Wilson supporter on here. Speaking of Supporters, has anyone heard from Trevor C?
By my count it looked like the first units ended in a tie, with the lee 2s outscoring the gap 2s by a touchdown. Two different styles of play between these two, but it was a pretty even scrim, with lee looking a little better tonight, and by a little I mean just barely. Gap didnt move the ball as well as I thought they would on the ground but had some success through the air, which caught me by surprise. Neither offense was overly impressive, which is pretty common at this point in the year, but the defenses deserve some credit for that.
Lee looked sharper yesterday than they did for the first couple weeks of last year's regular season. The offense seems rather complex based on what a few of the players have told me, but thats what all the time in the offseason is for. Coach G is doing some great things and I hear a lot of positive remarks about him through the community. As for the discipline, there were actually a few instances where that was lacking-- twice on the field and once on the sideline, but its not something I'd like to go into too much detail about. Coach G is trying to change the culture for the better. The Lee team that beat TA in the regular season, the year TA won the state championship was right in the Staunton Streak and those boys were ready for hoops, but had the squad to win it in football based in the talent, but they were basketball players that just happened to play football. Back to the scrim, the defensive line play was pretty solid, and the linebackers did a good job of filling the gaps. They'll see something very similar next week, so this scrim may be very beneficial for seeing what they will face in RHS friday. Not trying to start anything with the buffalo gap faithful, but their offense is basically what RHS runs, only not quite as efficient as the "big red machine"
In reference to Gap, if they can get their oline to gel, they will be tough to beat. Looked like a lot of miscommunication up front for them, and they didnt get a good push the whole night I dont think. They are a little more athletic this year than I remember them being last year. They've got a few of those high energy, high effort players that I love watching. They had some kids wearing the same numbers but #32, #44, and the safety really come to mind as old fashioned, hard nosed football players
Best team there. Huge, stud backs and that QB impressed me. Our Boys from the Ville competed with them. Defense made stops but when you have the horses in the stable and you get them going, it's a long day.
